weeding out what could be irrelevant or a shout to other science fiction...

the 'interstellar stock exchange' could be a star wars reference. in that realm of fiction it's abbreviated 'ise'. one abbreviation of 'isx' is the iraqi stock exchange.

Quote:

The Interstellar Stock Exchange, or ISE was the primary stock exchange in the galaxy. It was suspended on the news of the declaration of martial law in the Galactic Alliance.

I figured Water= Ho as Water = H20. Just missing one of them hydrogen thingies... Actually, straight HO is hydrogen peroxide (empirical). And there's actually an element with the abbreviation Ho:
Name: Holmium
Symbol: Ho
Atomic Number: 67

Yeah man, we already solved the http://projectprometheus.com's first two directories (assuming there's more, I hope so).

First url: http://www.projectprometheus.com/245409/
Pass: DDM2DDM2DDM2AMAMAMBIGBIGBIGBMESMPP,

Second url: http://www.projectprometheus.com/eridu/
Pass: tell abu shahrain


Might want to check the previous pages before posting next time.

Apologies in advance if this has been mentioned already, but I cant find the page in this thread that relates to Eridu

However, Its in the UK trailer

This could be old news, but if you watch the UK trailer, ERIDU is the name of a place shown as an ancient civilization at around the 29 second mark



And at 30 seconds...



..it lists Eilean a' Cheo (Isle of Skye) and Mesopotamia on the next 2 artifacts.

I tried these in Project prometheus but no luck.

It may be useful if someone could do an up to date list of how things were discovered since this thread is now a bit weildly and I have no idea how Eridu or the other image were discovered.

Anyone?

I know, right? Also wondering about the Zinc icon. It's ZN, whereas for all the other items that have a 2-letter abbreviation, the 2nd letter is lowercase (i.e. it should be Zn, not ZN) An error or a clue?

I would try to keep what blackfeathers said before in mind:

This is not the periodic table as we know it.
Sure it looks like it, and those 1or2 letters abbreviations sure recall it, but..

Gas, Oil..

Let's just think of this as a resource key for now

Pardon as I stretch I am pretty sure that the only exposition on the acid blood is in the first film where it is referred to as 'molecular acid', which is kind of like saying 'wooden wood'. From the wiki on the xenomorph: In the Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem documentary: "Science of the Alien", it is theorized that the Aliens' acid blood could be some type of "hydrosulphuric acid" composition due to its corrosiveness and the conspicuously toxic effects on living human tissue.

Awesome! thanks for that!

i keep staring at that damn background image - and i was looking at the jumping/moving orb in the bottom left - the dark orbs...they form a clump that looks an AWFUL lot like the Orion belt/constellation.

I'm gonna grab images and see if that goes anywhere.

Yep, module 2.4 seems like it just wants us to do that

Hiya, been lurking and enjoying this ARG/non-ARG. Nice work so far, everyone!

I'm intrigued by the periodic table infographic as well.

Gas is listed as 001 (closest would be 1, aka Hydrogen, which makes some sense) but has the abbreviation of Za.

Graphite - 147 - Pc (form of carbon, redundant to have on a periodic table)

Orichalcum - 247 - Oc . Wikipedia snip: Orichalcum is a metal mentioned in several ancient writings, most notably the story of Atlantis as recounted in the Critias dialogue, recorded by Plato.

And so on. Just a few stray thoughts.
